Hmmm...
I credit Pipes on FC for debuting the idea of using induction heat to heat a Dynavap. Does that need to be stated?

I credit Stardustsailor on FC for graciously sharing a few key improvements that made my device safer and more robust. He was very generous in sharing his knowledge, and the heaters are better devices for his contributions. I did ask him for permission to use his features before adding them, and he seemed happy to let me do so. We exchanged several PMs about this project and his thoughts on it, and while he was helpful he also made it clear that this is mine to figure out and not his. I acknowledged his contributions extensively in the FC thread, and I have told him that I will be giving him a heater as soon as I have one to spare. So yes, he was a big help.

I now love you again Mr Flux.

I feel SDS helped you leeps and bounds saved you alot of brain ache and possable law suites
So glad you mentioned him.I personaly think you don't give him enough credit and the man is TOO nice. I could say more on this but I'm not. Good luck Flux--Great Tidy product.

I give all that have put forth effort to create different IH's for the vapcaps! You all deserve credit for making the use of the vape cap more enjoyable no matter who you are of if I have one of your units. Big thanks for your efforts and success! :up:

I received my heater about 5 days ago. Works perfectly. I'll probably never use a torch again.

The nice thing is the removable batteries. You don't need powerful batteries, the larger the capacity the better for something like this.
The unit rattles a little bit without the batteries installed. Once installed, it quiets down completely.
Great unit. Highly recommend.
$150.00 out the door, batteries not included. It does come with a wall plug and the batteries can be recharged installed in the unit.

No idea how many. I put in full charged batteries Saturday, and it's still good, but I don't use it constantly either. Should last a lot longer than the Portside Mini, as the Mini has very low Mah compared to what you can put in these.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the FD, @GrumpStump! I am so happy it's working well for you! It's extremely satisfying to finally hear from people using these - they've been a long time coming from my perspective. So happy people are using them and enjoying them! Thank you for being an early adopter!

"I want an induction heater so bad but dont know if its worthe the 150 for the flux or a 50 dollar dental one from amazon anyone try the amazon one??"

That's a very fair question, and I think the decision rests on whether you need it to be portable. The big (or small?) thing about mine is that it's powerful while also being portable and as small as possible for the batteries I wanted to use. It took time to figure out how to do that, and it also takes times to make them. They are built by hand, with very good components (e.g., I use $2.50 switches instead of $0.10 switches, etc.), so those add to the cost as well. But they also add to the user experience, imho, and make the device much nicer to use.

If you just want to heat a vapcap from a desktop unit, the dental tool induction heaters work OK and are an affordable and clean solution for that. There's no compelling reason to buy a $150 portable IH if a $50 desktop version works fine for your needs.

However, if you want to heat a vapcap perfectly, repeatedly, without a torch, while you are out and about, using the smallest IH currently available...you should give the Flux Deluxe a hard look, as that's what I built it to do, and that's what it does.

Thanks for the comments, all! I'm happy to answer questions about my heaters if anyone has any. I'll also be posting some additional YT demonstration clips today, as soon as I get them edited.

hi, nice to read from you again.how much amps pulls the device from the batteries? I would use the INR18650-35E due to their high capacity. Or should I prefer to take sony konion? I want to use the batteries with the maximum capacity .
and sorry for my english. It is bad but my intentions were good :)
